It Was As Good As They Say It Is

Rating: 9/10 (18 July 2013)

Outstanding movie. Only thing wrong was the small crowd in the theater made people a little shy to stand up and cheer for the good guys. It was a stand up and cheer movie. Good old basic us vs them plot. Excellent monster aliens. Funtastic monster robots. Impressive CGI fight scenes (in which they avoided using the usual trick of speeding up the action so they can get by with less fine detail). Likable characters which we want to win. The women can kick butt just like the guys. Avoided cluttering up the central action with a clumsy love story.
Upgrading those old Gozilla stop action monsters was way long overdue. Thank you guys for not screwing it up. This was an excellent movie. Go see it.
